Brain-inspired computing may boil down to information transfer - EurekAlert


<p>The biological brain, especially the human brain, is a desirable computing system that consumes little energy and runs at high efficiency. To build a computing system just as good, many neuromorphic scientists focus on designing hardware components intended to mimic the elusive learning mechanism of the brain. Recently, a research team has approached the goal from a different angle, focusing on measuring information transfer instead. Their method went through biological and simulation experiments and then proved effective in an electronic neuromorphic system. It was published Feb. 1 in<a href="https://spj.science.org/journal/icomputing"><em> Intelligent Computing</em></a>, a Science Partner Journal.</p>
